Friends, enemies, opponents,
Had quite the Nor'easter come through. Though, we only got a little over six inches of snow our power was out for most of yesterday. And, my house is now surrounded by broken branches and downed trees. It looks like a war zone just outside my door.
Needless to say, I will be getting turns done on a priority basis. Team Games first, tests second, and then regular play.
Sorry for the delay. This is the first my computer was able to be turned on since yesterday.

Hey Ed!
Glad to read you and your family are safe... and hopefully your house suffered little damage from the storm?
Cleaning up yard debris and litter is one thing... having to deal with roof damage and major repairs is another? :chin:
Hang in there my friend! :smoke:
Second that, glad you came through it ok
I'm out too. Just posted a long thread in the officer's area. I'll be offline for the near term. 19 inches on our town. No power, no water, heat. Not even cell service. Came into the office to use the bathrroms and to make sure we could find a way in.
Toni's the man for the next week or so.

Take care you guys !!! Winter can be a b*tch especially if you do not take her seriously. I should know, I am from Finland.

we got off lucky in SE CT. Mix with 4-6". Was fortunate we lost power and got it back 6 hours after. didn't have to fire up the new generator. This storm was made worse by the after effects of Tropical Storm Irene. It weakened alot of trees in its path. We lost power for five days during Irene but that was during summer. Now its cold with nights near freezing. Best wishes for those in the Northeast.
Downeast Maine rules..........about 1 inch and power loss of about 45 minutes........of course I am sure we will receive the proper payback as winter progresses.........hey!...wait! its still only fall.....winter doesn't begin for another 2 monthes :-(

Everyone here is safe. Thanks! :smoke:
No damage to the house.
More of my neighbor's trees came into my yard. Luckily not breaking my fence.
I've got a week or two of chainsaw work. Some of the branches are ten to twelve inches in diameter, and they look like fallen trees themselves. :eek1:
Poor trees had leaves on them and they really got weighted down.
My dogs are not too happy either. :conf:
Some areas just got power back this afternoon. I guess we were lucky, indeed!
BTW, I am still working on normal game turns. Tests and team games have been sent.

Glad to hear everyone's doing more or less fine.
We had about 14" here, but only lost power for 12 hours or so. "Luckily" I lost a whole bunch of trees in Hurricane Irene, so there were no weak links for this storm.
